S/N: Hello awesome people of the Internet! I'm Surviving_Devil! I'm sure most of you don't know me, since this is my first story in the Fatal Frame section of . I just finished the third game eariler this month (I as really sad about Kei's fate) and as I saw the ending I had the urge to write this.

This is a slightly altered take on ending 1 of Fatal Frame three, hope you enjoy!

Rei was crying. Yuu had just left her again. She didn't want to be alone again. She crouched down, sobbing to herself as shadows walked past her.

"You'll be okay Rei," A familiar voice said behind her. She turned around, seeing Kei standing behind her. There were two girls beside him, that looked exactly alike.

"N-no I won't!" She yelled, tears running down her face. The two girls crouched down beside her, and started pulling on her arms.

"Come on! Don't cry!" One of the said, she wasn't sure which one it was, or even fully on both their names. She knew one of them was named Mio, but even if she had met Mio both of the girls looked the same to her.

"Rei, you're be able to survive almost anything. Where Miku failed, I failed, countless others before us failed, you succeeded. You've broken the curse," Kei told her. That didn't make her feel any better.

"But everyone's leaving me behind! Even you are!"

"For now, yes you could say that. You'll join us over time, but it's like Yuu said, 'Once you die, we'll be gone.' We can only live on in the memories of those who are still alive. We are never truly dead until the final person who is alive that remembers us dies. So do us a favor and never forget us."

"You'll be fine, miss. I saw you in the mansion, you're brave. You won't have to worry," The other twin said. Rei was started to feel a little better.

"Now I'm sorry, but I need to go. You're not the only one here who needs someone to talk to," Kei said. He motioned to our left. Rei looked over, seeing Miku, talking to someone. At first Rei isn't able to place who it is that she's talking to. There was a bittersweet smile on her face.

After a few seconds, Rei realized who it was. Mafuyu, her brother. He pulled her in close to him. Rei could see Miku glow a slight pink. Rei realized it was just like with what had happened to her and Yuu. Miku's tattoos were moving off of her body onto his.

Rei took a step. Kei was already ahead of her, along with his twin nieces, walking at a brisk pace. He wanted to say goodbye to Miku, Rei figured. Plus see an old friend. They probably hadn't seen each other in a long time.

Rei took another step towards them. Kei, Mio, and Mayu were able to move much faster, as if they weren't being held back by the water. Kei glanced backwards, seeing Rei behind them. He smirked at her, as they got even farther ahead of her. She hadn't realized how far away Miku had been, until she was sure that Kei had gotten a good twenty feet ahead of her.

They got up to where Miku was, while Rei was still catching up to them. She didn't want to be left behind again. Tears were still going down her face, as she caught up. Miku's brother and Kei were leaving with both of the twins, but Rei knew she wasn't alone.

Rei held Miku tightly, she wasn't alone, she knew that. There was a piece of everyone they knew that passed inside each of them...and they had each other.

S/N: How did you like it? It took me a bit (Probably far longer then it should have) to realize that Mio was dead in the game and that as why Kei was in the mansion seeing her. I thought she was just stuck in the mansion to at first.
